Profile:
Overshadowed by his Bombay schoolmate Tendulkar throughout,
Kambli arrived with a bang when he debuted against England in
1992-93. The free-stroking left-hander with the high backlift
scored two successive double centuries in tests and followed it
up with two more centuries in as many tests against Sri Lanka
ending up with a phenomenal, ``Bradmanesque`` average in his
first 7 tests. From then on, his average has been steadily
declining as he has struggled to cope with fast, bouncy bowling
and a loss of form. After short periods out of the team, Kambli
is gradually getting back to his best, and is showing the
appetite for success which had served him so well previously. His
quicksilver footwork and Clive Lloyd-like high backlift continue
to combine well to make him the nemesis of spin bowlers
worldwide, and the Australian genius Shane Warne in particular.
He has been in and out if the team on account of either
indifferent form or injury. He was dropped after the Sahara Cup,
1996, and was recalled for the Independence cup in 1997. But he
was dropped again and was recalled for the triangular series in
India and Sharjah early in 1999. His scores did not impress the
selectors and a dejected Kambli was not included for the World
Cup squad to England. He hasn't represented India in a test match
since 1995. A long tough road is ahead for Kambli, especially
with the number of youngsters performing well in the domestic
circuit and putting pressure on the selectors. (Aditya N.
